What do you mean "Block IO"?  And do you mean in the kernel or via
standard system API's ?  If the latter, you can find most of the
necessary info via "info libc".  If the former, I don't know, seem
to recall there's a book out about Linux Kernel Programming or some
such...  Otherwise, use the source and hit the kernel mailing list.
